Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil pour tunnellisation gonflable et des techniques associées permettant de créer un espace anatomique de travail pour une opération chirurgicale. Cette invention concerne divers modes de réalisation d'appareil en une et deux pièces qui permettent l'observation laparoscopique pendant la tunnellisation et pendant la dissection. Dans un mode de réalisation en une pièce, une partie tubulaire possède un alésage qui traverse l'intérieur de cette partie et une extrémité distale. Une lèvre formée dans cette extrémité distale de la partie tubulaire permet de capturer la pointe distale d'un laparoscope inséré dans la partie tubulaire, de façon à permettre d'observer l'opération pendant la tunnellisation vers une localisation souhaitée et pendant le gonflage du ballonnet qui s'ensuit. Un goulot profilé du ballonnet est fixé sur la partie de tunnellisation. Ce goulot profilé permet de retirer délicatement la partie tubulaire du ballonnet après le gonflage afin de faciliter l'observation. Après avoir avancé le ballonnet jusqu'à la localisation souhaitée dans l'anatomie, on le gonfle par un lumen de gonflage de ballonnet afin de séparer les tissus et créer un espace opératoire. Cette invention concerne diverses fabrications de ballonnet et une conception réutilisable.
